The logical extension of [[Powers as Programs]], this character has the ability to [[Power Copying|duplicate or steal]] the powers of not just one, but an entire group of people and use them simultaneously.

== Anime
* In the last fight against Clear Note ''[[Zatch Bell]]!'' Gash receives the help of about ''all'' mamodos he has fought, allied during all events he has gone through. [[Crowning Moment of Awesome]] with no freaking doubt.
* Kitabami in ''Tende Freeze'' is particularly notable because one of his copied powers was clinical immortality.

* Another ''[[Magic: The Gathering]]'': [http://ww2.wizards.com/gatherer/CardDetails.aspx?&id=107385 Experiment Kraj].▼
** Slivers and Allies. All but a handful of Slivers grant their abilities to every other Sliver (for example, Crystalline Sliver gives all your Slivers the Shroud ability). Allies have effects that kick off every time you play that card or another Ally card, and many of those abilities' effects depend on the number of Allies you have (like drawing a card for every Ally you have).▼
* The ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh Card Game|Yu-Gi-Oh!]]'' [[Card Games|CCG]] comes with multiple takes on this trope.▼
** There are Union Monsters, which can turn themselves into Equip Spells for other monsters—including one particularly famous group of Union Monsters whose main gimmick was that they were [[Combining Mecha]] (see entry on page).▼
** There's Relinquished, which can steal your opponent's monster to equip it to himself to boost his own power levels.▼
** There's [[Blood Knight|Buster Blader]] and other monsters (such as [[Our Dragons Are Different|Red-Eyes Darkness Dragon]], [[King Mook|Goblin King]], and [[Infinity+1 Sword|Gren Maju Da Eiza]] or the infamous [[Physical God|Slifer the Sky Dragon]]) that gain power for all monsters of a particular type or attribute on the field or in your discard pile (the effect varies; some (like Da Eiza or Slifer) even gain points for cards in a particular SPOT).▼
** There's the Element monsters, six monsters that were either Light or Dark attribute and gained fitting effects if Fire, Water, Wind, or Earth attribute monsters were on the field.▼
** There's the Six Samurai monsters, which gain their effects only when there's another one of them (of a different name) on the field (and thus got many cards to [[Game Breaker|get them out]]).▼
** There's the Equip Spell 'United We Stand', which fittingly enough gave the equipped monster 800 Attack Points for every other monster you controlled, and then there's the Continuous Spell 'The A. Forces', which was a card that, for every [[An Adventurer Is You|Warrior]] or [[Squishy Wizard|Spellcaster]] you controlled, gave all Warriors 200 extra Attack Points.▼
* ''[[Duel Masters]]'''s CCGs has this in the "Survivor" creatures, where the more Survivors you have on your field, the stronger your other Survivors become, as they share the abilities.▼
* [[The DCU]]:
** Amazo, who was designed to emulate the combined powers of the [[Justice League of America]].

* Immediately after all 17 [[Guardians of Pokémon]] are awakened, [[Weasel Mascot|Jupei]] teaches them the Hyper Guardian Blast, which combines all of their powers. {{spoiler|And then they get [[Curb Stomp Battle|owned]] by Guardia.}}
* Mocked in the ''[[Undocumented Features]]'' story ''Fire Hazards'':
{{quote|"We're waiting for Special Detail. Or Avatar Korra. You don't happen to know where she is?"
"We all have to be together for that to work," Karana said seriously. "Only by all our powers combined can we summon the Avatar."
The cop blinked. "Really?"
Karana snorted. "No," she said. "Don't be a dope."}}

** There's also a Solar Circle Sorcery spell that allows a Solar circle to merge into one amalgam form, with the combined Skills and Charms of the entire circle.
* Many super hero games, such as ''[[Mutants and Masterminds]]'', have powers like this built into the frame work.

* The Witchcrafters in the ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh!]]'' game are female Spellcaster crafters, each with a different area of expertise: [https://yugioh.fandom.com/wiki/Witchcrafter_Edel Edel] is a gemcutter, [https://yugioh.fandom.com/wiki/Witchcrafter_Haine Haine] a seamstress, Verre practices glassblowing, Pittore painting, Potterie pottery, and Schmietta does metalwork.
